off-gas cleaning Applications

When it comes to odor management, simply cleaning the tank isn’t enough to remove the odors. Prior to cleaning, storage tanks are vented to the atmosphere in order to reduce the internal gas content to a level below its lower explosion limit (LEL). This permits safe worker access. During venting, odors escape into the atmosphere creating a nuisance to nearby residents, businesses, and employees. Furthermore, storage tank cleaning results in production downtime that reduces plant profitability.

For many decades now Körting gas scrubbing plants have distinguished themselves in diverse branches of industrial exploitation with great success. The principle components of these plants are the: The conversion of basic process engineering oparations for the exchanging of heat and materials such as cooling, physical and chemical absorption and dedusting permit separation and recovering of gaseous, liquid and solid materials from gases.

Problem: When scale and hardened mud build up in oil well drill pipe, plugged drill heads are the usual result. This reduces efficiency and increases downtime. Traditional rattle-and-brush systems can leave some build-up behind and require a rinse operation to flush debris and drilling fluids.

The Oil and Gas industry represents an important market segment where DMT enhances value. Especially the use of Flash gas is increasing. These type of gases needs to be cleaned in order to protect the environment as well as the utilities where it is used. Easy to use desulphurisation techniques are more and more demanded, next to re-use of water and water treatment techniques. DMT designed a range of desulphurisation techniques especially for these purposes and has dedicated water treatment solutions. The variety of problems ask for specialists to implement these efficiently. Our extensive expertise can help you with your challenge to find an environmentally friendly and profitable solution.

Natural gas gathering systems deliver large volumes of gas via pipleline to the central inlet of the gas processing facility. Removal of solid contaminants and free liquids present in the inlet gas is critical to the downstream process. Iron oxides, iron sulfides, dirt and other deformable particles can flow into the processing system. Effective removal of these contaminants is needed to prevent fouling. Pentair Porous Media technologies will help with a clean, natural gas feed, reducing upsets and associated downtime and increase productivity, lowering capital costs with fewer change-outs.

The OSEI Corporation manufactures a first response bioremediation product Oil Spill Eater II that has been used to clean up leaks around storage tanks from valve breaks, line breaks and small holes in tanks, as well as for tank sludge clean outs. OSE II has been cleaning up oil/hydrocarbon based spills including heavy oils, sludge, drilling mud, tailings as well as refined product since 1989.

You refine the fuel, we’ll remove the odors. Oil refineries and petrochemical plants may generate large volumes of odor from the processing and refining of different fuels. Sulfides, mercaptans, and hydrocarbon compounds are all closely related to the oil industry. The odors generated from these industrial compounds are of a high nuisance value and generally create concern among local air boards and the public. Ecosorb odor removal products may be used in a variety of areas around the refinery including water treatment facilities, sludge ponds, sulfur recovery units, and API separators. To remove odors during tank cleaning and maintenance operations, portable dispersion systems can be used in the immediate work area to control malodors. Ecosorb products can be directly injected into flues and stacks and may be used as a substitute scrubbing solution in some applications.

"Spent" catalysts are strictly regulated due to the environmental concerns they pose, and since landfill disposal is unacceptable, companies suffer big expenses.
Vulcan® Systems' technology removes the hydrocarbons from spent catalysts, recovering valuable materials such as nickel, vanadium, molybdenum, and platinum.
Catalysts are essential in the refining of petrochemicals into clean fuel and other valuable products.

Bristar Containment Industries has been serving Environmental Protection in the Upstream Petroleum Industry for 15 years. Prevention of soil and groundwater damage is preferred to clean up after the fact.

FGD (Flue Gas Desulfurization) involves the treatment of flue gas from coal fired power plants. The main goal is to remove sulfur, particulates, and other chemicals such as mercury from the flue gas prior to environmental release. Governmental regulations by the EPA put limits on the amount of impurities which can be released into the air. The use of mixers to clean and scrub the flue gas is utilized to help power companies meet permitted limits on the release of controlled substances.

Environics gas mixing, blending and dilution systems provide for precise mixing of gases for a wide variety of clinical applications. Our systems can produce gas concentrations from percent to ppb levels for single or multi-point calibration. The high accuracy of our mixers make them the units of choice for a wide variety of laboratory and research applications. For example, Environics Biological Atmosphere Incubation Mixers provide stable and accurate gas mixes for any laboratory or clinical need. You can generate the specific reduced oxygen environments needed for anerobes as well as the enriched oxygen environments needed in a variety of cellular, viral and high density culture applications. Systems can also be used to create a specific and stable gaseous environment in a clean room. In all cases, the Environics Atmosphere Mixers allow you to use less expensive single-gas cylinders or bulk tanks in place of a high number of expensive blended cylinders.

Adding Wilsa ElectroWaveTM technology to existing separation equipment at Salt Water Disposal Wells (SWD) or Salt Water Injection Wells (SWIW) has a profound impact on the amount of oil can be recovered without using chemicals. Additionally there is a host of operational improvements and savings that result from the Wilsa Effect. Oil free solids settle out faster for cleaner, clearer brine for injection. Cleaner brine means less injection pressure and fewer acid jobs in the formation. Pump packings last longer by reducing solids and abrasive elements from the brine. More targeted solids settling allows for less tank clean outs. All of this adds up to significant operational savings.

Natural oil and gas extracted from shale rock formations has become one of the fastest-growing oil and gas sectors worldwide. Using a process known as hydraulic fracturing or `fracking` , the process requires large volumes of clean, sterile water to be injected into the shale formation to release the gas trapped between the rock.
